Frommer's Review
This casual place is jumping morning to night, and the ocean-side location is only half the enticement. With a setting like this, the food doesn't have to be this good -- but it is, and hallelujah. The coconut shrimp is fried to perfection, and if lobster is in season, order it here, grilled. Hemingway's is also a fine lunch choice, serving a terrific mango shrimp salad over Provo lettuce with mango chutney, a very respectable hamburger, and good chicken and chips: marinated and fried Caribbean jerk chicken breast with the restaurant's signature seasoned fries. The service is attentive but relaxed and friendly. At night torches and candlelight heighten the romantic ambience. A bell sits on a pole on the upper deck of the restaurant, there to ring if anyone spots JoJo the dolphin cruising the Grace Bay waters.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
